How Much Hp/Tq Does My Combo Have?

[Joey5.0]

I dont have much but i would like and estimate on RWHP and Torque. Heres the mods:

BBK Cold Air Intake
BBK Underdrive Pulleys
NGK Plugs
Ford Racing Wires
A/C Delete
Smog Delete
Stock Timing (10)
Black Magic Electric Fan

BBK Shorty Un-equal Headers
BBK Off Road H- Pipe
Flowmaster American Thunder Catback
FRPP Aluminum Driveshaft

Anyone got any ideas where im at?

 

[Tonys96Cobra]

Im gonna stab at 215 RWHP.

 

[DeVus1]

Eh. What year is your Mustang? It looks like an early 90s, so 225fwhp/300tq to start. It looks like you have a manual transmission so....

~250fwhp / 15%-17% = 250 - 37 = 213rwhp
~325fwtq / 15%-17% = 325 - 48.75 = 276.25rwtq

Just a guess though.

Edit: Damn close to Tonys guess!

bout right..pullies 5-10, exhaust 10-20, fan 5-10...210 RW is my guess.

1990 Gt.

5spd.

Shouldnt Headers Hpipe and Catback be more than 10-20hp?

 

[DMAN302]

No not really...10 is average I would say.

 

[Hickfied]

Exaust was what, 14RWHP on a stock 5.0 with a CAI on HorsePowerTV?

 

[DeVus1]

Throw on some longtubes and you would see bigger gains.

 

[DMAN302]

And throw a couple degrees of timing into her when temps get a little lower.

 

[Joey5.0]

Temps get lower?

 

[bentley429]

Iam with everyone here, 210-215 rwhp

 

[Joey5.0]

What would the Gains be With long tubes and offroad X over Shortys and Off road h?

 

[DMAN302]

5-10.

 

[Sicarius428]

I would say the mods are good for about 20 ft lbs of torque... maybe 25

Which Mods? ^

i would say about 210 to the wheels....he meant that when the colder temps of the fall come around you can bump the timing up to 14 degreees btdc and get another 10hp. basic bolt ons dont add nearly as much power as you would think. A full exhaust is worth about 10-12....cai is worth about 2-4...and an electric fan is worth about 5, and u/d pullies are worth another 5-8. Drive shaft maybe worth 2-3 and the smog and ac delete maybe worth another 2-3. Grand total of +35ish at the flywheel which is worth bout 20+ at the wheels. good start though man...think about some gears next!!

 

[Joey5.0]

Will do the gears soon. What else should i do?

 

[DMAN302]

subframe connectors, gears, thumper heads.

 

[Joey5.0]

Already Have MM SFc's.

Thumper heads?

 

[FastDriver]

No way! Don't touch those heads before you swap or port that stocker intake. It along with the stock TB and MAF are the weak links right now. Upgrade them, and you'll pick up pretty good power, and then you'll be set to put in better flowing heads.

I'm going to guess 215-220 rwhp with the timing set right and no problems. 190 whp + 3-5 whp for the CAI + ~8 whp for pullies + ~5 whp for the fan + 10 whp for exhaust = 216-218rwhp, I feel that's a good conservative estimate for your combo, but you need to set the timing to 13-15*. Even in this weather, unless there's another problem with the car, you'll be alright with at least 13* if running 93 octane.
